The analysis of 62 polymorphic bands obtained with two AFLP primer combinations indicated that the three cultivated bean types were comparable in terms of molecular diversity and that no pattern of variation was associated with geographical distribution. …”

Variability of N2-fixation in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) under P deficiency is related to P use efficiency by Vadez, Vincent, Lasso, JH, Beck, Douglas P., Drevon, J.J.

“…However, the ratio plant N per plant P concentration was the most discriminating. We concluded that this later ratio, which is almost similar to plant N-fixed per plant P concentration, in glasshouse hydroponics culture might be: (i) an estimate of the P use efficiency for SNF, (ii) a consequence of low P concentration in plant organs, especially nodules, and (iii) a determinant of genotypic variability of SNF tolerance to P deficiency.…”

Evaluation of strigaresistant early maize hybrids and test locations under strigainfested and strigafree environments by Akinwale, R., Badu-Apraku, Baffour, Fakorede, M.A.B.

“…The two test locations possessed high discriminating ability. More promising genotypes were identified under Striga infestation based on multiple traits than based on yield per se, suggesting that grain yield alone is not a precise predictor of Striga resistance. …”

The predatory mite Typhlodromalus aripo prefers greenmite induced plant odours from pubescent cassava varieties by Onzo, A., Hanna, R., Sabelis, M.W.

“…Our study confirms not only that T. aripo uses herbivore-induced plant volatiles to search for prey in cassava fields, but it also shows that it can discriminate between glabrous and pubescent cultivars and prefers the latter. …”

Morphological variation and reproductive incompatibility of three coconutmiteassociated populations of predatory mites identified as Neoseiulus paspalivorus ( Acari: Phytoseiidae) by Sourassou, N.F., Hanna, R., Zannou, I., Moraes, G. de, Negloh, K., Sabelis, M.W.

“…Morphological measurements were also made to determine whether there is a means of discriminating between them. Inter-population crosses showed complete reproductive isolation between the three geographic populations, but interpopulation discontinuities in morphometric characters were absent. …”

Hyperspectral system for early detection of rottenness caused by Penicillium digitatum in mandarins by Gómez-Sanchís, Juan, Gomez-Chova, L., Aleixos, Nuria, Camps-Valls, G., Montesinos-Herrero, Clara, Moltó, Enrique, Blasco, José

“…Different methods such as correlation analysis, mutual information, stepwise, and genetic algorithms based on linear discriminant analysis (LDA) are studied to select the most relevant bands. image segmentation relies on the combination of efficient band selection techniques and also on pixel classification methods such as classification and regression trees (CART) and LDA. …”

The impact of adult diet on parasitoid reproductive performance by Benelli, Giovanni, Giunti, Giulia, Tena, Alejandro, Desneux, Nicolas, Caselli, Alice, Canale, Angelo

“…First, we focus on food preferences and learning abilities of parasitoids to discriminate high-quality diets. Second, we analyze the impact of the adult diet on longevity, examining different natural and artificial food sources as well as the effect of their concentration and frequency. …”

Morphological diversity in eggplant (Solanum melongena L.), their related species and wild types conserved at the National gene bank in Mauritius by Naujeer, Houshna Banu

“…Principal Component Analysis revealed that fruit characters were important marker traits with a large coefficient of variation (> 40 percent) that most effectively discriminated between eggplant accessions and hence useful in establishing a simple but effective eggplant classification system at the gene bank. …”

The results showed that Argentine propolis could be differentiated in the two cases studied, and that A. mellifera, T. fiebrigi and S. jujuyensis would not use the same plant species to produce them.…”
